My question involves a child custody case from the State of: ca,orange county
okay so i am a 21 yr old mother who has been raising my son alone since he was 5 months old he is now 41/2. when me and his father separated he was 4 months old his dad only stuck around for about a month then was deported to mexico he has been out of his life fully since then no contact once so ever not an email phone call nothing not from him or any of his family. my so is young and going thow a rough time in life after the lost of his younger brother he very fragile so i don't want there to be any issues if by chance his father decided to return. i would like to fill for full legal and physical custody of him so there is no problems because today my mother received a facebook message from his father saying hes still in mexico but TJ so close, he did not ask about his son at all, he is not a good person and i really don't want him have any rights over my sons well being i'm young and have never had to do anything like this so im here looking for some help things are tight and there's no way i can afford a lawyer to help me so im hoping you guys can i have filled for child support in the past but nothing was done due to the fact that hes in mexico they could not find him to collect. im just worried my son is finally doing good hes going to school and playing baseball and emotionally he is getting better i don't want to screw his head up by his dad stepping back in hes to young to understand he has had my fiance who has been his daddy for 3 years now and for another man he has no clue who is is or never head of him it would be a hard one for him to get at such a young age.
thank you
